What did yoru gyn sa: Say? They should be able to see it on a pelvic ultrasound and if u can't see the string either it is still in the uterus, or it perforated thru the uterus but usually u would ahve symptoms or the more likely thing since they cannot see it at all is that u expelled the iud, please discuss with your gyn who put it in.
